A. Module Parameters
--------------------
   You can configure the ATMEL 11Mbps PC Card by editing
   the config.opts located in the /etc/pcmcia directory.
   Change the parameters, whose default values aren't 
   those you want.

   i.e. if you want to connect to an access point named 
   WLAN just add in config.opts the following line
        module "fastvnet_cs" opts "ESSID=WLAN"

*********************************************************
***                 IMPORTANT NOTICE                  ***
*** Whenever you change any parameter in config.opts  ***
***   you must restart the pcmcia card services by    ***
***                      running :                    ***
***         /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia restart           ***

B. Fastvnet_cs and Wireless Tools
---------------------------------

   The PCMCIA device driver is compatible with the wireless
   tools. You can set almost anything except Encryption and
   NWID. For them you have to use either the ATMEL command
   line tool (fvnet) or the application for X (xvnet).
